Give kids a voice: iPads for Autism

Your generosity keeps giving to those with autism!

By Susan Byram - President/CEO

Autism Pensacola keeps working to improve life for those with autism! And because of your generous support of Give Kids a Voice:iPads for Autism, we have now supported 18 families through the gift of an iPad! In fact, this week we have presented 4 new families with their iPads. That's 18 families who have a tool that makes a difference every day.

Remember, our families must take part in a class to learn techniques that empower them to work more effectively with their children to be eligible for our iPad grants. We also use a sliding fee scale to require parents to have buy in to the program--extending your dollars even further.

These families report many ways that the iPads are making a difference. From William who now does homework more willingly to Nick who is discovering a passion for photography, these iPads are used to improve life for these children and their families. Some use them to communicate, others to increase motivation and others to practice critical skills.

Thank you again for your support. Your gift makes a difference everyday--and will continue to do so for many more days to come!
